All Chapters of Dead at Heart: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Evelyn was caught off guard.She stayed silent for a moment, trying to unpack the meaning behind Ariel's words.She knew Ariel's personality well—always good-tempered and considerate. If something was within Ariel's ability, she rarely said no to any of Evelyn's requests.So now, Ariel's sudden assertiveness made Evelyn instinctively wonder if she already had something else planned.After some hesitation, Evelyn asked, "What's going on? Why didn't you make them? You know perfectly well those ladies love your desserts. Didn't I tell you to remember this and prepare extras as gifts every year?"Those ladies in Evelyn's social circle would always exchange little holiday gifts. Their gatherings were about more than just tea; they were how power and relationships were maintained.And Ariel's baking had earned their approval.For the past few years, Evelyn had her make more than enough to be boxed up and gifted to each household.They were just small desserts—troublesome, yes—but was

The outdoor spring was the largest hot spring in the resort and had the best view. From there, one could see fireworks bursting in the sky and towering mountains in the distance.Ariel quickly sensed something was off.She was wearing a swimsuit underneath. If she took off the bathrobe, it might be a bit inappropriate with Perry around.So she simply sat on a chair at the edge, watching to see which side Perry would choose.Perry hadn't guessed what was on her mind. A staff member had already brought over a beautifully arranged fruit platter and drinks.As he glanced over, he caught sight of Ariel's long legs under the bathrobe.Her posture was perfect. As she sat with her legs naturally crossed, the long lines of her legs looked even more striking.Perry abruptly looked away and cleared his throat before stepping into the water. Turning his back to Ariel, he avoided looking again.He pulled out his phone and started replying to a few holiday greetings on WhatsApp.Ariel didn'

Looking out of the window, colorful fireworks could be seen exploding in the air. Ariel raised her head and gazed at the night sky. Then, she turned her eyes toward Katie and Leonard, who were recording the fireworks show by the window.She could sense that Betty had genuine concern for her. Ariel would have had a harder time living with the Larkins if not for Betty, who had always taken her side during the last few years."Grandma, we didn't get into any fights," Ariel replied slowly. "You know how Jayson and I hardly ever fight with each other."The way they had settled most of their issues was by putting it aside until they could reach a consensus through negotiation.Normally, couples would get into arguments when they still cared about each other and their relationship. Unfortunately, Jayson felt nothing but detestation for Ariel.For a moment, Betty was at a loss for words.She was also aware of this particular issue that Ariel and Jayson had. Regardless of how close or hap

Freya debated for a bit before snapping off a small piece of a palmier and handing it to Perry."I'll give you this much. You can just have a taste. Ms. Walker has made them specially for me."Perry was rendered speechless as he looked at the tiny piece of palmier on his palm.Matt and the others came back fairly quickly.Nancy walked over while checking the photos on Matt's camera. A faint smile played on her lips.Jayson noticed Renee was missing. He asked, "Where's Renee?"Freya answered immediately, "She went back to the lounge. She got upset for some reason just now. I'm not even sure what I've said that ticked her off, though."Jayson did not think much of it. "Hmm… Don't mind her. She's been spoiled rotten."After hearing Freya's explanation, Matt suddenly recalled the post she had shared on her social media account the other day.He sat down next to Freya and poured her a drink. Then, Matt probed, "Tell me, Freya. You posted about your brother and a lady the other day.

If Ariel were to go ahead and tell all those people that she was Jayson's wife earlier, Nancy might end up getting criticized for dating a married man. Jayson might not let Ariel and her family off if that happened.In the end, Ariel made her decision based on a fair sense of reason. She still had a chance to speak to Jayson anyway; they would both be here for a while for tonight's event.Once she was done arranging her thoughts, Ariel followed the crowd as they entered the venue.Inside the hall set up for the product launch, Chad spotted Ariel right away and waved his hand at her.When Ariel got there, Chad patted the seat next to him. "Sit here. Let's have a look at whether the new material created by Vireon Technologies possesses any advanced, noteworthy features. They are a decent company worth looking into."Ariel nodded pensively. "So, Mr. Quinton owns Vireon Technologies?" Zach was an only child. Instead of joining the political scene, he chose to venture into business.
